I get the error Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table I used the regular domain on the server for personal usage and had a lot of aliases in there for mail lists. Now non of the aliases work. Thanks [View Less]

Different web interface and email address domains with POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS
by Andrew Oakley Jan. 21, 2008

Jan. 21, 2008

I'm trying to set up a list "list(a)domain.com", but I want the web interface to appear at http://sub.domain.com/mailman/.... I have set POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS = ["domain.com"] in my mm_cfg.py, but I can't spot a way to set the web interface location. With the current setup http://sub.domain.com/mailman/... does show the interface, but all the links in it point to http://domain.com/mailman/.... Any ideas would be appreciated. As a side note, the mailman guide doesn't seem to say that … [View More]

translate strings, not whole templates
by jidanni＠jidanni.org Jan. 20, 2008

Jan. 20, 2008

What you currently have now is each translator not only responsible for translating message strings -- but also faithfully reproducing the whole HTML structure of the English version -- intact. E.g., we run a random template through a HTML validator and see end tag for "TABLE" omitted, but its declaration does not permit this start tag was here end tag for "CENTER" omitted, but its declaration does not permit this start tag was here end tag for element "CENTER" which is not open end tag for … [View More]

surely can install mailman without root?
by jidanni＠jidanni.org Jan. 19, 2008

Jan. 19, 2008

Does one really need root privileges to install mailman? Surely I could install mailman on my web shared hosting plan without root. (As the version of mailman Dreamhost provides gives the administrator only access to the web interface, and not the shell scripts -- drives one nuts trying to debug.) I'll just use --with-username=$USER --with-groupname=`id -g` ... --with-cgi-ext=.cgi etc. and then use my .procmailrc to redirect what comes to the extra mailboxes my hosting plan allows me to make..… [View More]

Re: [Mailman-Users] Postfix->Mailman->Exchange - Where are my NDR's?
by Lamaster, Robert Jan. 19, 2008

Jan. 19, 2008

OK, after further research (I finally found a good source), I see that Mailman discards bounce (NDR) messages (whether or not you turn on it's bounce processing feature). Is there any way I can temporarily intercept these for troubleshooting? I'd just like to see some of the NDRs.
